>no hammer of dawn strikes in the last act while you escape the city.>no footage of dom's kids being killed or any images of dead kids for that matter.>no reunion between dom and maria. in fact, maria isn't shown or even heard at all.>dom barely says and does shit until literally the last act.>all we see of carlos is one still image. no cool flashback showing the good times between him and marcus to show us how much he loves him.>marcus only looks after dom because carlos makes him promise to, not because he wants to himself.>mags and reyes stealing the show in every other scene.bruh who the hell wrotes this shit? what a wasted opportunity.
>>750192448>no footage of dom's kids being killed or any images of dead kids for that matterWeren't they in a different city? Which asks the question of why they didn't just set the game in Ephyra. I assume because Gears one was already set there
>>750192448>market the game as a chance to play through the cool shit Dom and Marcus talked about in the previous games>complete bait and switch, game is actually about two donut steels nobody cares about, while Dom and Marcus talk about more cool shit we don't get the play throughAnd I think the biggest surprise as that I'm surprised at all.
>Sorry, but the human sacrifice WILL stop!Why did he do it?
The whole point was what op pointed out. They lied and didnt even want to do what they said.
I played the original trilogy on the 360, 4 and 5 are on game pass, decided to beat 4 and 5 before E-Day, 4 was alright but holy shit what a shore is GOW 5, hope E-Day is closer to the OG trilogy
>game gets pitched with a clear intention of going back to basics and circumventing the bloat of unpopular newer entries>once production starts, the writers completely miss the point and make the same subversive faggot slop they've been making for the past several yearsthis is the new norm. don't fall for it the next time it happens to something you like.
>>750195213The entire western gaming industry needs a fucking dev audit. Unfortunately the closest thing we have to auditors are clueless executives who tend to throw out the babys with the bathwater.
>>750192448let's be real. a prequel should've been set in the pendulum warsfuck the locust, i wanna kill UIR
>>750195654Both a Pendulum Wars and a Lambent War prequel.
>>750195654But there would be no enemy variety. Also a lot of the soul of the series comes from the locust. You wouldn’t have chainsaws or e holes or giant dinos with guns without the locust.
>>750195654>a prequel should've been set in the pendulum warsCould be a fun dlc, Would suck as an actual game.Like >>750197158 said, Without the Locust the game would just become a generic military third person shooter, and it being a prequel, you wouldn't even get access to the Chainsaw Lancer.
